Saros cycle series 149 for solar eclipses occurs at the Moon's ascending node, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, containing 71 eclipses, 43 of which are umbral (17 total, 3 hybrid, 23 annular). The first eclipse in the series was on 21 August 1664 and the last will be on 28 September 2926. The most recent eclipse was a partial eclipse on 19 March 2007 and the next will be a partial eclipse on 29 March 2025.
